Perfect Christmas!
In order to get my family together, we rented this beautiful and cozy VRBO at the base of Petit Jean Mountain. It was perfect for our large family, complete with fire place and Christmas decorations. It was the best stocked kitchen of any VRBO at which we’ve stayed. The beds were comfortable and the accommodations were beyond our expectations. We met the owner as we were coming in and had a wonderful chat with her. My family is already requesting that we do the same for next year.

We enjoyed both homes for a family gathering celebrating my in-laws 50th wedding anniversary. We also spent some time on Petit Jean including a trip to the farmers market.
The house was perfect for our gathering and the property is gorgeous!

Beautiful and spacious place!
I rented this house to accommodate some of mine and my now husband’s family for our “destination” wedding at Petit Jean State park, and I am so happy I did! Gwen was an amazing host and readily available! This is a spacious property with so much room for entertaining and just gathering for family time! We utilized both the main house and guest house and our family was very impressed with the property! We also had our reception out back behind the guest house and it was beautiful! Gwen has tables, chairs, table cloths, etc available at the property to rent for any special occasion! If we ever go back to Petit Jean for a family trip, I will definitely be renting this property again if available!

Little slice of heaven
This was a wonderful destination. Our family consisted of eighty years old ,to 16 years old. The only thing inconsistent with description was the waterfall not working currently, but had no bearing on the great time we had. Gwen is everything a host can be during our stay. Lots of space to move and mingle. It could be challenging for someone with mobility issues due to the terrain, being built on side of hill.

Great Experience Wonderful Property
We had a total of 9 Family members, me, my spouse, my daughter and her husband + 2 kids, Bonus son + wife and 2 kids, Bonus Daughter. We all had a great time and nobody had any complaints. Loved the closeness to the Arkansas River and were able to see at least one riverboat on the river. Very quiet property, well maintained. Would highly recommend to any with a large group, we easily could have handled another 5 or 6 folks with us.

Perfect for our Family
We have deep Arkansas ties and came from Texas, Georgia and Kentucky to celebrate the holidays. Finding a place with enough rooms and beds is not easy. (Unlike when I was growing up, my children and grandkids don’t seem to be able to sleep just anywhere 😬). Your house was perfect for us…very well equipped, comfortable and homey. Even decorated! We all loved it. It was fun exploring Petit Jean again and reliving good times. The pool table was a big hit with the teens, but I don’t think we turned on the TV at all. Yay!
The hosts could not have been more welcoming, accommodating and helpful. Thank you for sharing your beautiful home. We will be back.

Best Christmas ever
We had 14 guests ranging from 4 months to over 65. The accommodations were great for everyone. I have used many vacation homes in the past and this was one of the best. The host decorated the house for Christmas and the little ones were very happy Santa could find us there. We made great memories. Thank you.

The house and the grounds were amazing but what set this trip apart was Gwen the host. We held our daughters wedding reception at the house which was absolutely perfect. Knowing how stressful something like this can be Gwen was there to help with anything we needed. This is a great venue for any kind of event or just for a relaxing getaway. We will definitely be back !!

Perfect for our Family
The house and guest house were perfect for our family, 6 adults and 7 children. The older kids LOVED the pool table! And, they all loved the pool which felt like we were in a magical kingdom. In addition, the house is perfectly located to petit jean. We hiked in the mornings, came back to the house and many times went back to the park. But, my favorite part was meeting Gwen!

Paw Paw House is Amazing
Our hiking group was visiting the area to hike Petit Jean State Park and stayed at Paw Paw House October 24-26, 2021. We had both houses and it accommodated our group perfectly. It was too cold to use the pool, but we sure enjoyed the river view from the front porch, waterfall and firepit. The logs for the fire were provided and stacked and ready to light! The house had a well equipped kitchen, the billiard room and living room were spacious and were great places to hang out and visit. The bedrooms and bathrooms were comfortable. I would definitely recommend this as a great place to stay.
